The term "cocktail ring" probably only came into use in the late 1930s. Prior to this, large, purely decorative rings were usually referred to as "dress rings" or "dinner rings". The former was usually characterized by a large coloured stone that was intended to complement the dress that gave it its name. In 1929, Harper's Bazaar wrote on this subject: "It is no longer seen that two or three rings are worn on each finger. Elegant society wears a diamond band as a wedding ring and a large solitaire ring, usually a diamond, as an engagement ring, and then perhaps another dress ring to enhance the effect of the dress." Which elegant dress might a society lady once have worn this ring with? It has an oval facet-cut water blue aquamarine in its center. A ring of diamonds and flower-like cut ornaments give the natural gemstone the appearance of being embedded in lace. While the ring face shines brightly thanks to a layer of platinum, the rose gold shank gives the ring a certain warmth. This elegant ring from the 1930s has been very well preserved. It is also suitable as an engagement ring.
